Russia is fast becoming our latest bogyman with neocons, war hawks, and a complicit corporate media, all beating the preliminary war drums, rapidly convincing a duped public that the Russian threat is real.
The record shows the Russian threat is nonsense, but the record also shows there is a threat, not from Russia, but from the US.A couple of years ago the US was foaming at the mouth anticipating being able to bomb Syria into oblivion, claiming as pretext Assad was using chemical weapons. Once again the US was using the tired argument that it was necessary to save the people by bombing them. Ask the "people" of Libya, and Iraq, and Yemen, if they felt saved by being bombed?
We laid waste to Libya with 77 days of bombing and devastated that country, along with the complete destruction of Iraq, and now, with our invaluable assistance and weapons, we are doing likewise to "save" the people of Yemen.Our thirst to bomb Syria a few years ago was foiled by those evil Russians, who stepped in diplomatically and got Assad to get rid of all Syria's chemical weapons. Those nasty Russians would not let us have our bombing and prevented it by using diplomacy. Is that why they now are our enemy?
Naturally we would not be stopped, and found the pretext to bomb Syria anyway. Using ISIS as an excuse, we are currently bombing Syria trying to usher in the same kind of anarchy we brought to Iraq and Libya.
Corporate media, shill mouthpiece of the US government, would have you believe that the US is part of a world coalition that is bombing Syria, when the fact is 99% of the bombing is done by the US alone. In any case the end game is to reduce Syria to chaos, death, destruction, and violence, which is well under way. Those nasty Russians are again interfering by sending weapons to support the Assad regime. It appears that our thirst to bomb, has forced the nasty Russians to draw a line in the sand. They will support Assad and not tolerate his overthrow by the US.
Comment: Like the wimpy little kid who ingratiates himself to the schoolyard bully for protection, Canada has once again proven itself a cowardly and insignificant player on the world stage, ready and willing to align itself with America's global hegemonic war against imaginary terrorism.
